Early B*TCHFest: Because YOU asked for it!
THE RULES: "B*TCHFest" is provided as a public service to those of us who have gripes and grievances but whom, for whatever reason, lack a regular forum in which to air them. You are welcome to voice any problems - large or small, important, mundane or ridiculous - that currently have your panties wadded, your shorts frosted and your gears ground. Don't hold them in and risk future medical issues, wrinkles and/or those pesky gray hairs.
ANY and ALL issues that are plaguing you are open for you to voice; there are no "scared cows." They say that "feelings aren't facts", so if you're feeling it, it's legit to you. NO ONE is allowed to flame a poster for something he or she writes, however commiseration is not only welcomed but encouraged. Please, no personal attacks against other PH members (at least, not by name.)
That being said, here's my beef:
WHY DO I HAVE TO GET TO THE AIRPORT SOOOOO GODDAMNED EARLY???? It never takes very long to get through security, and then I still have about an hour and 45 minutes to kill. I KNOW it's all a scheme to get us to buy more crap at the airport. Fine. But when I have to get up at 2:45 in the morning for a 6:05 flight, ain't that a little much??? I'm not good - or pleasant - on very little sleep. Where are my damned No-Doze?
My gripe is about a gril who sits in front of me - it is totally irrational as I am sure she is a nice girl - but why oh why dress like a ganny when you are a young woman... She's a mousey girl, and she won't smile at me... Shyness is sometinmes rudeness!
I completely hear ya on the airport thing...drives me crazy.
Okay, I have a LOT to B*tch about this morning, it's been a rough week.
Last Thursday, I gave my 2 weeks notice. I quit my job. My last day is September 17. I don't have another job yet, but I'm searching. My boss is impossible to work for, and has made several inappropriate comments about my age and I've had it. My coworker is quitting too--but she is moving. The lady he hired I don't like, and I don't see myself working with her, since he and she are very close. The home office was no help to me--when I told HR about his comments she laughed and said that my boss has "a unique sense of humor"!!! I felt so abandoned last week. I am filing a formal complaint against him, but it won't do any good--just make me feel a little better. I love my work and I love my clients, but nothing makes my job good anymore. I've been very depressed and I can honestly say I hate my boss. When I gave him my letter of resignation, he said Ok, chuckled, and walked away. What an ass.
So, I was REALLY bad this weekend, as I had this "I don't give a F*ck attitude. I'll do my confession this afternoon when the Tuesday Afternoon Confessional is posted. So now, today, I feel like crap from all the crap I ate and drank and I'm at work trying to get through these 2 weeks and put up with a jerk of a boss and trying to find a new job and trying to be happy because I didn't gain any weight but I didn't lose either--kinda hard to lose when you're eating like I did. Anyway, yeah--bad week last week. We'll see how this week goes.

There is this lady who works at my job...she is twice my age, dates a guy who is 18 and wears pants sooo tight that I have never seen her without a camel toe. Anyway she is one position higher than I am and has worked here for 10+ years and is lazy as hell.
Anyway her new supervisor is trying to get rid of her, although the process has been long and grueling. So she wants to take all of her anger and fustration out on me. She is unprofessional, talks about me in a negative light to my supervisor and then had me written up for calling her during non work hours. I thought that was why we had an employee call list with home and cell phone numbers? Not like I would be calling this ***** to hang out...
Also. The scale has been bouncing around for the past month...I have been within the same 10lbs seems like forever...and I am sick of it. Inches my ass!! I need to lose pounds!!!!
okay im done...
Yesterday while working on the garden at the community plots, I noticed a car pull up with two young college guys who have obviously never stepped foot in a garden. At least not to work it. I mean, for goodness sake, who wears their new designer adidas to garden? These guys were produce shopping. And Right in front of us! They gotta a lot of nerve.
They had better not step one toe in my plot. That red headed kid is not exactly sly. I'll find that little ginger jerk and take back my produce!

Also, there is air freshener in the bathroom that is WAY too strong. It is meant to be used as a laundry spritzer... but people use it as deodorizer. So now instead of the bathroom just stinking when someone drops a deuce, it smells like wildberry-scented ****

WOW! Some really strong feelings going on here! Glad to see we are a day early too! Although, I will probably have more for tomorrow :))
Here goes mine:
1) coworkers who continually come in late the day after a holiday or call in sick all together. If everyone else in the office sees that this is a pattern, why doesn't the boss? We were off Friday also, you got four days off and still can't be to work on time on Tuesday? Really?
2) H1N1-we now have to keep track of who calls in sick and ask them specific questions when they call in. And tell them to stay home for 7 days. Okay people, you know there are those that are going to call off and say that they are sick with all the symptoms of the flu. We have posted the symptoms. Some idiots think it is free reign to take some free time off! And for those that were almost out the door, it is seven free days to look for another job! Gotta be a better system than this!
3)The weather in St. Louis! Is it cooling off? Is it heating up? Is it cool with humidity? UGH! And our leaves are changing already? WTF? That isn't supposed to happen until early October!
